Ummmmmm. Don't persuade him that Happy Feet is all that realistic...

Eggs don't hatch, parents die, chicks die, any colony that crowded is Mother Nature at her harshest...

And don't tell him the truth about March of the Penguins either - the Emperor Penguin nursery is in one of the most inhospitable places in the world and men were brought to the brink of death just trying to document it. (A cold coming we had of it, Just the worst time of the year For a journey, and such a long journey: The ways deep and the weather sharp, The very dead of winter)

I can't remember - am I actually allowed within 100 yards of children?

My penguin died in 9-11, you insensitive bastards.

Oh, and penguins WILL NOT fly from a treadmill.

They will if there is a shark after them.

Or if you shoot them out of a cannon.

.. but then the cannon has to be on the treadmill. Tricky, that.

most cannons have wheels though, so I think it could work. You'd just have to be careful the cannon didn't take off...

Oh yeah penguins can fly! Just watch this video...
